Abstract: Event creation systems and methods implemented on a server hosting an event application include receiving a request for an event and a pledge for the event from a first user, wherein subsequent to the request, the event is defined by a type of event, a specified date or range of dates, a geography, and a minimum support threshold; receiving pledges from a plurality of additional users over a specified timeline prior to the specified date or range of dates; subsequent to the pledges exceeding the minimum support threshold, obtaining confirmation from event contributors required for the event and a venue for holding the event; and, subsequent to the confirmation from the event contributors and the venue, converting the pledge from the first user and the pledges from the plurality of additional users into confirmed tickets for the event.
